Hull City have reportedly had a £15m bid for Brazilian forward Emersonn rejected by Toulouse. The 21-year-old forward has been on the radar of the Tigers, who are gearing up for life in the Premier League after securing promotion via the Championship play-offs. Emersonn has shown promise at a young age, scoring six goals in 27 appearances in Ligue 1 last season. According to Mail Online, Hull City's offer was knocked back, but the club are said to be exploring other options. Manager Sergej Jakirovic will be keen to ease the burden on talismanic striker Oli McBurnie, who was crucial in the club's promotion push. The need for additions in the frontline could be strengthened by the departure of Kyle Joseph, who has reportedly been the subject of a £5m bid from Millwall. Joe Gelhardt, meanwhile, is due back at his parent club Leeds United after a season on loan at the MKM Stadium. Emersonn's exploits have also attracted interest from other Premier League clubs, as well as Bayer Leverkusen and Monaco. It remains to be seen whether Hull City will move again for Emersonn, who represented his native Brazil at under-15 level back in 2019. The Tigers will kick off their Premier League campaign on Saturday, August 22, when Manchester United will visit the MKM Stadium. Hull City's attack will be put to the test, and the club will be hoping to make some key signings before the transfer window closes. With Emersonn's future still uncertain, the Tigers will be keeping a close eye on developments. The club's fans will be eager to see some new faces arrive at the MKM Stadium, and Emersonn could be a key addition to the squad. As the new season approaches, Hull City will be looking to make a strong start and prove themselves in the Premier League.
